The book ”Vocea de la căpătâi. Ghid practic de consiliere la patul bolnavului” [The bedside voice. Practical guide for counseling at the patient's bed], authored by Ligia Moise, published by Lumen Publishing House from Iasi, Romania, in 2019, is a practical counseling guide at the patient's bedside, written by a psychologist with clinical experience and humanistic training, which allows for a holistic approach to cases - not only the body, but also the soul must heal. Therefore, although she admits the indisputable value of knowledge, diagnosis, prognostic information, the author emphasizes a certain attitude towards the patient, an authentic, individualized way of communication, meant to activate the patient's coping resources.
